Recenzii

'The various editions of Deviant Behavior have… long been the best deviance readers on the market, going back to the late 1980s.  They have the most complete coverage, most logical organization, and the readings are not 'abridged' so heavily that they lose their coherence or complexity.' - Jeffrey Ulmer, Pennsylvania State University, USA.

'The conceptual and theoretical information presented in this reader is unmatched by any I have seen on the market today' - Ryan Schroeder, University of Louisville, USA.

'I use Deviant Behavior because it is the best text I've found that combines classical theories, and studies exploring methodology and findings…The book includes classical and modern thinkers in sociology, and I think students are well-grounded after studying the readings…. It is still the best and most accessible text for college students.' - Elizabeth Callaghan, Ithaca College, USA.
